Abstract: Provided are survivin specific antibodies, nucleic acids encoding the antibodies and methods for treating tumors comprising survivin-expressing cells by administration of the antibodies. The antibody compositions were found to be effective in inhibiting the growth of tumors.

Abstract: Provided is a method for evaluating the progression of glioma in an individual comprising monitoring the levels of circulating exosomes that are positive for survivin and a glial marker (such as glial fibrillary acidic protein). An increase in the level of such exosomes is indicative of poor prognosis. Levels of circulating exosomes that are positive for survivin and glial marker can also be used for evaluating the efficacy of a therapy for glioma in an individual, and modifying the therapy or introducing additional therapy if levels of such exosomes are found to be increasing.

Abstract: Compositions and methods for stimulating an immune response against cells that express survivin are provided. The method is suitable for prophylaxis and/or therapy of autoimmune disorders. The method involves administering to an individual a composition that contains a survivin peptide mimic that has a cysteine to methionine alteration at amino acid position 57 of wild type survivin. Fragments of the peptides can also be used.

Abstract: The invention relates to compositions and methods for the treatment and prevention of cancer and other cell proliferative disorders.

Abstract: Provided are compositions and methods for treating survivin expressing cancers. The compositions contain peptide survivin peptide mimics with improved MHC-I binding characteristics. The method involves administering a survivin peptide mimic with improved MHC-I binding characteristics to an individual to effect inhibition of the growth of survivin expressing cancer cells in the individual.
